Virus Warning (device-dependent)
This field checks th e boot sectors of the hard disk drive to see if any changes have been
made since the previous system start-up. If the boot sector has been cha nged since the
previous system start-up (e.g. new operating system or virus attack), a warning is displayed
on the screen. T he warning will stay on the screen until you acknowledge the changes by
clicking on Confirm or until you set the Viru s Warning function to Disabled.
If the boot sectors have been changed and the reason for this is unknown, a
programme for finding computer viruses should be loaded.
Such a change is not only caused by viruses, but also by the boot manager.
This function does not replace proper anti-virus software.
No supervisor password is required to set it up.
